Message: [QUOTE="jostar1, post: 5045931, member: 1737"] [B]Paul Finebaum: North Carolina is at the top of SEC's priority list if it further expands[/B] The SEC doesn’t seem at all interested in any further expansion with the league now at 16 teams. Even so, if they were, Paul Finebaum knows the school that would be their next prime candidate in realignment. Still, if the SEC were to add a new member, Finebaum says what he has heard is that the obvious pick would be North Carolina. The only question would be if the Tar Heels would join on their own or if at least one more team came along with them to make it an even number at 18. “It’s North Carolina at the top,” Finebaum stated. “I think, after that, it’s a little bit unknown. There’s a million different theories. Would North Carolina take someone with them? Or would they just sit around?” “The one thing I feel pretty confident of, though, is that, if something happens in the next couple weeks, it won’t be Florida State going to the SEC. I mean it just seems like they have shot themselves in the foot on that,” explained Finebaum. “I don’t think Clemson is in as bad of shape but they are now lumped with Florida State.” [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.on3.com/news/paul-finebaum-north-carolina-is-at-the-top-of-sec-priority-list-if-it-further-expands-conference-realignment/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
